Abstract :
Recent advances in system design are presented. The shift towards flexible hardware architectures that can support a variety of applications via programmability and reconfigurability is underlined. Essential to this process is the definition and use of platforms. We give a novel abstract, definition of platform and show its use in system design, drawing examples from the automotive system design field
